Madden 24 Roster Update (Week 18): Ratings Changes & Release Time

As the NFL season steamrolls forward, the weekly Madden 24 roster update will be a staple once again this year. With controversy always abound as Madden 24 ratings are something fans will constantly disagree about, the regular Madden 24 roster update seeks to fix that. With their real-world NFL performances in mind, ratings will be on the move every week when the latest standouts (and slumps) come home to roost. You'll find regular predictions here and a running list of the top ratings changes in every single Madden 24 roster update.

Updated January 5, 2024: One of the last roster updates of the regular season has Lamar Jackson on the cusp of the 99 Club. 

When is the next Madden 24 Roster Update?

Unlike the regularity that we usually see out of something like the Madden 24 Team of the Week drops, the Madden 24 roster update brings a bit more uncertainty to the table. Most weeks, the Madden 24 roster update will arrive on Thursday afternoon.

Unfortunately, exact time isn't known as EA Sports has a tendency to stray from the schedule when it comes to the weekly roster update. With the next week of NFL action set to kickoff later in the evening, the Madden 24 roster update will usually be live by approximately 6pm ET on Thursdays.

They do occasionally drop early reveals on Twitter teasing specific players that saw a ratings boost, but only the full drop signals their database has been updated with all the changes. You can check the Madden 24 Ratings Database here to see all the launch ratings, and it will include every roster update this year after they go live.

How do you tell EA the Madden 24 ratings are wrong?

I know the feeling, we've all seen our favorite player or team get neglected by the Madden Ratings Adjustors. Sometimes it just feels like nothing is being noticed, and they deserve a wake-up call.

Fortunately, you can literally give them a wake-up call by getting in touch with the official Madden Ratings Hotline. If you want the Madden 24 ratings to change, we've got more here on how to make your voice heard.
